How Art Changes You + the Goth-verse | Nietzsche Roulette #02
Do video games cause violence? Did Nirvana cause nihilism? The influence art has on us is a much older debate than media scaremongering and concerned parents.
Did Nietzsche predict the goth subculture? In this episode, you'll be armed with new ways to diss bad art.
Let us know how you interpret Nietzsche's quote in the comments!
◬ Featured quote:
"Old doubts over the effect of art.
Are fear and pity really discharged by tragedy, as Aristotle has it, so that the auditor goes home colder and more placid? Do ghost stories make one less fearful and superstitious?
It is true in the case of certain physical events, the enjoyment of love, for example, that with the satisfaction of a need, an alleviation and temporary relaxation of the drive occurs. But fear and pity are not in the sense needed of definite organs which want to be relieved. In the long run, a drive is, through practice and satisfying it, intensified; its periodical alleviation notwithstanding. It is possible that in each individual instance fear and pity are mitigated and discharged, they could nonetheless grow greater as a whole through the tragic effect in general. And Plato could still be right when he says that through tragedy one becomes generally more fearful and emotional.
The tragic poet himself would then necessarily acquire a gloomy, disheartened view of the world, and a soft, susceptible, fearful soul. And it would likewise accord with Plato's opinion of the matter, if the tragic poet and with him whole city communities, which take a special delight in him, should degenerate to ever greater unbridledness and immoderation.
But what right has our age to offer an answer to Plato's great question concerning the moral influence of art at all? Even if we possessed art, what influence of any kind does art exercise among us?"
